Created event (or duplicated an existing one) and using the event end as 16/12/2017 – ticket sell until is 13/10/2017 (start date of event is 14/10/2017).

Upon update the event end date is changed to 2017-10-15 12:00 am and Sell until value to today (2017-08-05 02:22 pm) after being updated to 13/10/2017.

Is doing some very odd things with date formats versus how WP is set up in General etc… 05/08/2017 d/m/Y EE is displaying as 2017-10-15 12:00 am (y/m/d etc)

Hi there,

The date-pickers within the event editor do not use the WP date format, there’s a few reasons for this but the main one being that WP allows you to set what would be considered invalid formats which cause further problems with the datepicker so we use a set format.

It is possible to change the format used via a filter if preferred:

However, I recommend against changing the format.

The other issue with dates changing on update sounds like a conflict with either the theme or another plugin. If you open up Chrome Dev Toolsz and look within the ‘console’ tab do you see any errors on the event editor?

To rule out a theme/plugin conflict you can follow the steps posted here:

So presumably a theme issue but has been working fine up to this point?

Those errors are not from Event Espresso and will not cause the problem.

So presumably a theme issue but has been working fine up to this point?

Did you run through the troubleshooting testing I linked to above?

Am doing so now:
Check the Version Number of Event Espresso – 4.9.45.p
Check for a Theme Conflict – issue remains with Twenty Seven active
Plugin check – this old plugin seems to cause the issue, “WP Testimonial Widget” only tested up to 4.5.9 (WP) so will look for a new / better tool.

Thanks again
